Abstract

In the presence of a small amount of sodium methylate, cyclohexanone and benzil form an addition product, which is a "semicyclic" 1:4-diketone. No derivatives of a bicyclic cyclo-heptane were found. Its most conspicuous chemical property is its sensitivity to mineral acids; among the reaction products is found a diphenyltetrahydrocumarone. Although the addition product exhibits the phenomenon of halochromism, the existence of a perchlorate is doubtful, and it did not form a free radical.
